Women who provide for their families are at the center of our work. We support them in setting up kitchen gardens so they can better nourish their families while also generating their own income. Training sessions equip them with practical knowledge about healthy diets. At the same time, we strengthen local smallholder farmers by providing seeds, fertilizer, tools, and training in sustainable methods for growing vegetables and raising livestock. Livestock farmers receive additional support for animal health care and access to feed. We are also expanding a local food processing facility to handle larger quantities, creating jobs and improving the overall food supply in the region.
Stronger Together
As part of the project, a newly founded association unites producers and enables them to sell their products at local markets. Long-term agreements between the association and farming families ensure ongoing support and agricultural advice. A digital platform streamlines delivery coordination and improves efficiency. Women also receive legal and social support—for instance, with birth certificate registration, housing matters, or securing property rights. Regular meetings foster exchange and peer-to-peer learning.
